  1. Multiple Access Techniques for wireless communication • Multiple access schemes allow many mobile users to share a finite amount of radio spectrum • High quality of communications must be maintained during the sharing process

  2. Multiple Access Techniques • Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA) • Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) • Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) • Space Division Multiple Access (SDMA)

  3. Multiple Access (MA) Technologies

  4. Capacity of Cellular Systems • Channel capacity of a wireless system is the maximum number of users possible in the system • Channel capacity depends on: • Bandwidth available • Signal to Noise ratio (SNR) in the channel

  5. Principle of FDMA Operation • Each user is allocated a unique frequency band or channel. These channels are assigned on demand to users who request service • In FDD, the channel has two frequencies – forward channel & reverse channel

  6. Cell capacity of FDMA SystemCapacity/cell N

  7. Example • In the US, each cellular carrier has 416 channels • Assuming negligible noise input:

  8. TDMA Operating principle • TDMA systems divide each FDMA channel into time slots • Each user occupies a cyclically repeating time slot • TDMA can allow different number of time slots for separate user

  9. TDMA Frame Structure

  10. Components of TDMA Frame • Preamble  Address and synchronization information for base station and subscriber identification • Guard times  Synchronization of receivers between different slots and frames

  11. Efficiency of TDMA Frame Efficiency

  12. Cell capacity in TDMA Systemm is the number of TDMA users in one channel

  13. Example If a GSM timeslot consists of 6 trailing bits, 8.25 guard bits, 26 training bits, and 2 traffic bursts of 58 bits of data, find the frame efficiency. Solution Time slot has 6+ 8.25+ 26 + 2(58) = 156.25 bits. Frame has 8 * 156.25 = 1250 bits / frame. The number of overhead bits per frame is: bOH = 8(6) + 8(8.25) + 8(26) = 322 bits Frame efficiency = (1250 – 322 )/1250 = 74.24 %

  14. Capacity of Digital Cellular CDMA • Capacity of FDMA and TDMA system is bandwidth limited. • Capacity of CDMA system is interference limited. • The link performance of CDMA increases as the number of users decreases.

  15. Number of possible users in CDMA • h is the background thermal noise • S is the average user power • W is the total RF bandwidth • R is the information bit rate

  16. Techniques to improve capacity • Antenna Sectorization Sectoral antennas at 120 degrees increases the capacity by a factor of 3 • Monitoring or Voice activity a Each transmitter is switched off during period of no voice activity

  17. Capacity Improvement )

  18. Example If W = 1.25 MHz, R= 9600 bps and SNR is 10 dB, determine the maximum number of users that can be supported in a CDMA system using: • omni directional base station antennas and no voice activity detection • 3 sectors at base station and a = 3/8. Assume the system is interference limited. h = 0.

  19. Solution (a)

  20. (b) Users per sector Total users in 3 sectors = 3 x 35.7 ~ 107 users

  21. Total users N in 3 sectors
